One of our developers who uses bash is seeing this error in his pushes from his private repo to his public repo, through the file system. Here is one example he conveyed: % git push error: remote 'refs/heads/master' is not a strict subset of local ref 'refs/heads/master'. maybe you are not up-to-date and need to pull first? error: remote 'refs/heads/origin' is not a strict subset of local ref 'refs/heads/origin'. maybe you are not up-to-date and need to pull first? updating 'refs/heads/fig_mt_1' from 85f1ff556f95b0177e69f99d1196a2db26213812 to 0a5a7ac9b81a90500b9c9c44a22793890513cd5a Generating pack...

His pushes seem to be propagating, but he's a bit nervous nonetheless. He has an active update hook in his public repo, to send notices to his collaborators when his work is ready for them to pull, but we looked through it and don't see any printing to stdout.
